Well I was hoping it was geared lower. I have all the running gear of this 1956 and I'm using it to build a tractor. But the motor was no good.Will a 60- 70 model motor work with the 56 tranny? If theres anyone in Arkansas that need some 223 motor parts your welcome to them. The bock and to pistons are bad but the rest is ok.
